Yes, in the qemu-system-i386 binary, it can be linked without -lxenguest.

Just a caveat, -- I know almost nothing about xen, especially xen
internals and its (stable, unversioned and unstable, versioned) libs.
Qemu links fine without libxenguest in the mix with xen 4.11.4, - I
can't say for other versions.  I just thought if it does not include
<xenguest.h>, why it should link with -lxenguest? :)
